Here's the finished shoulder tattoo design in Maori style.
I have to add it to my website/webshop, but here's a small preview for you.
Last week I made a custom piece for a customer from Norway. It had to match the style of an existing tattoo. He wanted a symmetrical design, based on a fish/shark, with elements like triangles and scales.
My inspiration also resulted in another shoulder piece. Not available on my website yet, because I need to scan it in high resolution. Please let me know what you think of the latest designs!
I'm working on a step by step example on how to I design my maori shoulder pieces. Hope to post it in a few days.
Today I worked on a new Maori shoulder piece. When I draw a new design, I start with a sheet of paper, 200 grams, size A3 (29,7 x 42cm).
The materials I use are just a simple medium hard pencil for the first sketch.
First I make a rough sketch for the shape of the design. Then some main elements are designed and I try to get a nice flow in the overall design. (My tattoo's have no specific meanings, I just combine different tattoo styles into one esthetic image) When that's done, I fill the small shapes with nice triangles, lines or other tribal tattoo patterns.
Finally I trace the tattoo design with a black marker and remove the pencil lines.
If you have questions on my Maori designs, just contact me at info@storm3d.com,

Today I started my new weblog, to give you some information on my tattoo designs and give an inside look on how I create the images. I always loved to draw and sketch, but for the past five years I have been creating Maori and other tribal tattoo designs.
On the 1st of July, my new tattoo website went online. It's a webshop for all my tattoo designs. Customers can purchase the high resolution designs, to use for a personal tattoo. I also do custom pieces, just contact me for details and pricing.
This Video featured Zoe Kravitz, the daughter of Lenny Kravitz AND Cosby kid Lisa Bonet (Denise Huxtable). I dont why niggas is just stating that she's Lenny's daughter and not saying shit about Lisa, as if Lenny carried Zoe' for nine months and shot her out of his dick.

BET was back again this year with another fashion show .This year event was hosted by Lauren London and rapper Nelly. This year performers were Missy , Snoop Dogg and N.E.RD. I heard the show was wack and needs more improvement. By the looks of some of these images it looked like the fashion police was needed at the event. Remember Rapper Charlie Baltimore? well she got my vote for worst dressed, with that wool Hoodie dress.

Lil Kim was walking on the red carpet for the Reebok event this week. I hope she's not the spokesperson for the new line. If thats the case they gonna have to rename the whole line LOL
Pop singer Rihanna celebrates her journey to adult life Feb 20th . Rihanna turned 20 and was very happy to be celebrating it with her hubby Chris Brown , family and friends. Chris brown sang Happy Birthday to her , there was also a food fight after she blew the candles and Kanye West was getting it poppin on her Bday.
I'm a fan of this song but i don't think i would be watching this video after today. I was disturbed by watching rick ross with his shirt off through out the video. He is not on that level to be exposing himself like that on camera. Enjoy the video guys!!!!!!
Ne-Yo was arrested on February 19th for reckless driving and for not having a valid license or better yet was he arrested for driving without a hat??? Ne-Yo is scary looking when he has his hat off so that could be the real reason.
StreetCosignor would like to thank everyone who came out to the "Get Up" this week at Sputnik on February 20th. We would like to send a special thank you to Outasight, Print, Dre Bond, & Jason for inviting us to host the event. It was a great turn out and we had a blast. We attempted to give out prizes to individuals in the crowd who knew lyrics to classic Hip Hop songs selected by DJ Andrew (Wuddup!). To our surprise, the crowd did not know ANY classic Hip Hop, but had the audacity to be at a Hip Hop show! SMH! I wasn't TAKIN it! So being the music head I am, I told the Dj to play anything and he put on "TRIUMPH" a classic track by Wu Tang Clan off the Wu Forever album. I spit the whole first verse, which I believe was the most lyrical verse throughout the song. I surprise the crowd, even my "Honey Child" Clyde was appalled (insider). Shortly after, a dude got on the stage an attempted to spit the lyrics "Brooklyn's Finest" by Jay-z feat. Biggie, I must say he wasn't doing a good job. Before I could blink twice, Harry of Clyde & Harry Productions was on the stage reciting the whole song. If you know Harry, you know this nigga DOES NOT talk. Harry grabbed the mic and showed the dude up on the stage. I was mad hype screaming "Aoooowwwwww". Shout out to Silent Bob Harry...you dat nigga! Then E*Star danced her ass off on the stage right before she introduced Mickey Factz. Shout out to all the artists that came through and performed, Outasight, Denim, Mickey Factz, Hi-Jinx, Good Day Good Night, Theophilus London, Chris Cassanova, & 8th W1. OMG! I wanna lick Hi-Jinx's eyebrows! Thick eyebrows are sexy as fuck!
***Shout Out to Assatasays.com for coming through. Even though you didn't get the intro, you will! ;-)
***Special Thank You to: LaVie Clothing, Rap Fanatic, Dream Cloth Clothing, & Mighty Healthy for their contributions to our gift prize bags.
